Sure enough, within two days, news of Yuan Zhao's mistreatment of his illegitimate son spread throughout the streets and alleys.

Upon hearing that it was about the Yongning Marquis's residence again, the onlookers became interested. It could be said that their happiness over the past two months had been provided by the Yongning Marquis's residence.

The Yongning Marquis's residence was full of astonishing events, one after another.

First, the whole family became vampires and seized the dowry of the Crown Prince's wife. Then, news spread that the Lady of Yongning Marquis was having an affair. Finally, a spring banquet was arranged, but then news broke that the Marquis of Yongning was taking the Crown Prince's woman for himself.

Now, before the Yongning Marquis's mansion could even enjoy its former glory, it has already suffered the fate of having its hereditary title stripped away.

It can be said that the Yongning Marquis's mansion has become a laughing stock and a cautionary tale for all the major aristocratic families.

Now that gossip is circulating again from the Yongning Marquis's residence, everyone is naturally happy to watch the show.

However, no one expected that it would be the Crown Prince's wife who would suffer the most this time.

Harshly disciplining a son born of a concubine?

In fact, this situation exists in all families, it just depends on how serious the situation is, and none of them will cause a big fuss.

It's rare to see a scandal like the one involving the Yongning Marquis's residence become so widely known. Anyway, the rumors were spreading like wildfire, and eventually everyone said that the little prodigy had been killed by Yuan Zhao.

When the news reached Yuan Zhao's ears, he laughed.

"Miss Yuan, shall I release the news?"

"Qingzhu asked from the side."

These past few days, Rong Ruo has been telling him to follow Yuan Zhao's orders, and he has been waiting for Yuan Zhao's command, but so far Yuan Zhao has remained inactive.

He really didn't understand. If he had taken action from the beginning, these messages would not have been leaked, but would have been nipped in the bud. Then, he could have released the words that Yuan Zhao had asked him to release, and the matter could have been resolved quickly.

He didn't know why Yuan Zhao was still delaying his action.

"No rush, let things escalate a bit more."

Yuan Zhao said slowly.

Qingzhu frowned; he felt that Yuan Zhao had lost his mind.

After Rongruo finished his official business, Qingzhu couldn't help but tell him about it.

"This servant truly cannot understand what Miss Yuan is trying to do."

Upon hearing this, Rong Ruo glanced at him and said indifferently:

“You’ve regressed more and more in the last two years; your methods are no match for a woman.”

Upon hearing this, Qingzhu immediately bowed, looking as if she was eagerly accepting instruction.

“Recently, it has been the Zhou family who have been in trouble. If we release those things now, people will feel exhausted and suspicious, thinking that the Zhou family has been framed!”

Rong Ruo spoke slowly.

Upon hearing this, Qingzhu suddenly realized:

"So, Miss Yuan deliberately had Old Madam Zhou release information detrimental to her in order to clear her name?"

"However, now that she has achieved her goal, why is she still hesitating to make a move?"

"Naturally, it's a case of first suppressing and then elevating."

As Rong Ruo spoke, a hint of appreciation appeared in his usually calm eyes.

This woman has a very clear understanding of people's hearts.

First, she is portrayed as utterly wicked and a villain, then a reversal occurs, and in the end, she becomes the most wronged person, and everyone feels sympathy for her.

If similar incidents were to surface again in the future, no one would believe them anymore.

She is indeed extremely intelligent!

Rong Ruo pulled his cloak tighter around himself. He had originally intended to return to his residence first, but at this moment, he felt a strong urge to see that woman.

If he had previously been forced to protect Yuan Zhao's life out of necessity to save his own, now he genuinely wanted Yuan Zhao to live longer.

After all, there aren't many people left who have a brain!
